Maybe the confusion is about the semantics like Capone was awarded a made guy status but he was not formally inducted with a ceremony and all that ?
Do we know when the first formal induction ceremonies took place in the USA ?
Good question, anyone know of the first mafia induction?
By induction, I mean the type that most of us think off. Not just ' you guys are with me ".
We know of the big one described in Valachis book, which was of the type we normally think.
Does Bonanno or Gentile say anything in their books?
